The good morning thread

Ostrich. A wild Essex ostrich.

They fly and far more glamorous than a turkey!

I'd like to point out that I'd pressed reply before seeing your clue.

Ok, griffin.

ALBATROSS!

Get yor albatross 'ere!

Surely an Essex Ostrich would be shelled in lycra?

Hmmm. So (having googled) maybe something like a Cormorant or a Petrel?

Pea foul actually! (the blue one was duck) huge thing, took about 3 mins to fry it!

 

[Felonious Crud]

Swan's a bloody good guess and I wish I'd thought of it. But, as Newton's a law-abiding soul, I'm guessing he wouldn't chow down on illicit eggs.

Goose.

PS - once again I was but moments behind the man himself.
PPS - a more careful read of earlier answers would have helped rule out some of my wrong ones.

Morning, all.

Phil, good luck tomorrow fella.

Hoyin, where is that? Looks nice. As for all the kids shite in the back that's why I'm starting to feel drawn to a two-seater. Mind you, my kids have more or less grown up and buggered off, so it's less of an affront to my OCD anyway!

Yet another quiet day today while my body sorts its sh!t after an op a week ago. Walked 5 miles yesterday which was ace, but my abdomen's complaiming a bit today.

Rioja region in northern Spain. Where all the wineries are. The building you see in the foreground is one by Calatrava.

Bodega Ysios

This is actually the view I am waking up to tomorrow. I am in the hotel on the right. In the area called Picos de Europa.

Unfortunately mine is only 1.5yrs old. So $hite in the back will be continuing for sometime.

However I am happy to say the Spanish love a Masser. There is literally a queue of people outside the hotel taking pics of my car.

Did a small repair at a local zoo/farm and usually come away with chicken and quail eggs, occasionally duck and geese but the peahens have started to lay this week so I thought it would be rude not to!

A very good morning to all...going to do a couple of hours in work to catch up and then home. Have a great day.

Morning Andy and all...all quite here in the Incident Room...hate bank holidays covering Gold Command.

 

[Caldy999]

I'd looked at those, but not sure what to get. Any suggestions?

I use a Stihl leaf blower - it's amazing the amount of water that appears from panel gaps and door handles. Dirty air isn't the problem.......but a smoky exhaust may be.

Morning,

Initial bit of work done this morning. Breakfast then get ready for the 8am conference call. Yes, I know its a Bank Holiday but I'm not going to get too much rest today.

Have a good one all

Good morning everyone!
I'm enjoying my balcony whence I'm watching the sunrise in Sagres in the Algarve. Today will involve looking around the fort, enjoying some cliffs, reading on a beach and pootling around in my fun convertible Fiat 500.

Very good! Get an A or a K seat and enjoy the bar, if not transitting through that over-crowded and over-heated airport. At least you're heading for somewhere gorgeous. Have fun and try to do sod all work.

Morning, all!

Morning all. Jobs for the day is set up my new MacBook so I can do emails whilst out for most of the week for work and, and numerous other IT related things.
Standard Bank Holiday weather so that limits things. Especially with Alex working today.
